GuildWho

GuildWho allows you to easily find out whose alt someone is, or which alts someone has. You can use slash commands to find out on whom someone is online, or print someone's alts. You can also print alts via the right click player menu in the chat and friends frame, or see alts in a tooltip via the guild roster.

Usage:
/gwho character - Find who this character is online as.
/alts character - List this character's alts.

Because of limitations in the API, if a note was updated in the last 10 seconds, your results may not be accurate!

How it works/you can make it work:
- "Mains" are created as long as any character has a valid name in its note.
* A valid name is the first sequence of letters (determined by [^%s%d%p]) found in the note.
- The main does not have to be a valid character name, and if it's not, it will exist merely to link the alts together, and not appear as a real character in any of the addon's features.
- Characters can not refer to each other, and should all refer to the same main.

TLDR: Put the name of the main character in the alts' notes.

3.4.0
- A custom note pattern can now be specified. The token $n goes where the main name is. Eg, "Alt-$n" (without quotation marks).
- You can now "disable" the addon for your guild by choosing to use "None" note.
- You can now specify a string which, when found in a note, will be ignored, and not recognised as a main.
- Fixed error in guild professions view.

3.3.0
- Alts are now displayed in a tooltip when hovering over a character in the guild roster.
- Now using class colors in detailed view, rather than adding the class name.
- Configuration is now done through the interface options. Slash command config is sooo 2010.
- Public notes are now used by default.
- Improved main-alt handling logic.
* If you used officer notes you will have to reset the note option.

3.2.0
- Updated ToC.
- Now using OO code. Doesn't affect users.

3.1.4
- Should now support non English characters.
- Minor code changes.

3.1.3
- Online status is once again listed in the /alts list.

3.1.2
- Fixed 3.0.8 error.

3.1.1
- Fixed error when running a command too soon after logging in.

3.1.0
- Added option to display alt details (class and level) in '/alts' queries. Use '/gwho !details' to toggle. (off by default)
- Options commands are now preceeded by an exclamation mark, to prevent unexpected behavior in the event that someone would name his/her character for example "Details".

3.0.1
- Characters joining and leaving the guild should now be recorded properly and no longer generate an error.
- Fixed help dialogue.
- Fixed logic that would make results inaccurate in rare cases.
- Settings are now stored per realm per guild rather than per character.

3.0.0
* Almost complete rewrite (yes, again) for overall more accurate results.
- You can now choose to use public or officer note.

So I installed this and logged in.... It tells me that every single member of the guild is an alt of every single member of the guild. ie: I mouse over any guildie name in the guild window and it lists every single member as an alt of theirs, same thing with /alt commands.

my guild uses public notes and every single character has a note. The notes either state 'Main', or 'Alt - Nameofmain'

Originally posted by Arcainia This program is not accurate as i have had characters linked to my toon that are not mine when type /alts and then my character name...just thought u might be able to fix it with some input

Hi,
there is an issue where characters with empty notes gets linked, which I've been meaning to fix. Do you think this could be what you're experiencing? I'll see if I can finally get around to fixing it one of these days.
